Angle has deployed a new borrowing module on Polygon, allowing users to borrow its Euro-pegged stablecoin agEUR. The integration provides users with low-cost transactions and has allowed Angle to reduce its minimum permitted borrow amount to just 20 agEUR on Polygon, compared to 10,000 agEUR on Ethereum mainnet. Users can use wETH, USDC, or MATIC as collateral to mint agEUR directly on Polygon. Angle is a capital-efficient, decentralized, and over-collateralized stablecoin protocol that aims to become an uncensorable money layer for DeFi blockchains.
